>Is he a second Peter Pettigrew? Will he betray Harry?  Or will he 
>be loyal?  Will he make it through the series alive?

I think he will stay as loyal as he can but I do think that he will 
either give information while under a truth spell or out of pure 
terror that will change the lives of one or more of the Hogwarts 
students.  H/H/R would, it seems, rather die themselves than give 
info that would harm another person.  I don't think N is that 
strong.  

I do, however, think he will surprise us with some powerful magic in 
one of the upcoming books.  Afterall, both of his parents were 
powerful.  I do get the feeling that he is repressing is own magical 
powers and intuitions .... I hope he survives and proves that 
everyone else should have paid more attention to him.......

Now that I think about it, I can see him turning on his classmates, 
though maybe Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle ... 

By the way, I joined this group only 2-3 weeks ago, not even having 
finished #1.  I finished GoF last night in tears and was so happy 
with how that book was written.  Easily my favorite so far!
